SNOW DAY(S) 2021
The 13th annual Snow Day will be a bit different this year (what isn’t?!) but we’re keeping the spirit of the event alive. This event will take place over the course of 3 weeks in January, with soup pick-ups, an online silent auction, and an art scavenger hunt! Hence, Snow Day(s)!

To keep us all safe, here's the new routine:
SOUP OFF!
Six local restaurants will compete to create the best soup in Knoxville, using at least one local ingredient. Ticket purchases allow each participant to pick up one 8oz. cup of soup from each restaurant during its designated soup week. We will send all participants a detailed email with ordering instructions.
Two restaurants will serve soup each week in the final three weeks of January. Participants will be given a link at the end of the month to vote on their favorite soup. Take care to note each restaurant's week of participation and business hours to make sure you get your soup. Also, please note the ordering instructions for each restaurant. All restaurants have to-go options to encourage pandemic safety.
We are grateful to our participating restaurants, and encourage you to support them in any way you can!
Week 1 (January 11-17): Tako Taco and Emilia
Week 2 (January 18-24): Hen + Hoc and Good Golly Tamale
Week 3 (January 25-31): Landing House and Simpl.
Please visit restaurants’ websites for the most up to date listing of business hours
All names will be checked against a list of participants.
SILENT AUCTION!
It wouldn’t be Snow Day without our silent auction! We're moving things online this year. This year our silent auction will have dozens of items from your favorite local businesses such as Gypsy Circus Cider, Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop, Dollywood, Meadowsweet Massage, Highland Manor Inn, and gift baskets from your very own Beardsley Farm! The auction will be live from January 11 at 8am-January 31st at 10pm. A link will be emailed to you in early January for you to begin browsing auction items.
ART SCAVENGER HUNT!
Each soup restaurant will distribute a hand painted card of a native plant with your soup. Collect all 6 of these unique cards to send as gifts, hang on your wall, and admire the beauties of our backyard! Make sure to ask for your card when picking up your soup.
Thanks to our in-house artist, Ashlee Mays.

Imperial Milk Stout
